Now we get the official poster from Marvel and it sort of feels like the polar opposite of the trailer. We once again get a full glimpse of the team, but it’s in that calming violet atmosphere at twilight. Where the trailer makes you feel like it is going to be non-stop hijinks with a tree prince and a bloodthirsty raccoon, this poster gives off the vibe that the Guardians are going to release an easy listening album next week.

Some folks want to compare Guardians of the Galaxy to Firefly. While that’s perfectly acceptable, I’d hate to see people running into this movie and expecting another Firefly movie and then curse the heavens when they don’t get it.

Still, my excitement level is high. I want this movie, flop or no flop and we have six more months to build the excitement. I’m a sucker for the cosmic Marvel Universe and to see it come to the film universe is great. Also we will finally get back to Thanos most likely, which can’t be a bad thing.

Sure. I think that’s hard to convey to your average idiot going to the movies though. I’ll be honest, just give me a big ass character poster with Rocket Raccoon blasting away with two gigantic guns and I’ll line up now.

This movie went from borderline top 10 most anticipated movies of the year (in my mind) to easy top 3 in a matter of days. It could let me down, like Iron Man 3, or it could be THE best Marvel Studios film, yet, at least.

Personally i think the poster is awesome, this and the trailer gives you a clear indication that they are gonna be cocky and have a big egos and feel like they are doing a service to the galaxy. The poses and the tagline all fit into that. It clearly is supposed to purposely look corny and is in complete contrast to the terrible posters Marvel put out for Thor 2 and IM3.

Not having read the comics I think this movie will be amazing! Plus if it is like Firefly/Serenity/Farscape well even better in my book. GotG has replaced Captain America 2 as my must watch movie of the year.

This is not a movie poster! Hollywood has taught me that movie posters have 1 of 2 things on them; 1: a giant floating head or 2: a guy with his back to me looking over his shoulder. OR both of those things.
This is obviously a fan made poster. Cant fool me!
